Title: Optical detection of particles in a liquid medium
Inventor: RASTOPOV STANISLAV
IPC: G01N15/02
Filed: 2000-11-15
Abstract: Particles in a liquid medium are detected by directing a source of laser light 10 through a container 14 containing a liquid sample with a concentration of microscopic particles in suspension. An optical detector 16 located off the optical axis receives scattered light from the particles and provides a signal with a dc component and a varying component. The DC component is removed to provide a filtered signal representing the varying component. Movement is produced in the sample liquid, e.g. by convective stirring 20, to extend the band of frequencies of the varying component towards higher frequencies. The apparatus can be used for growth curve detection of biological samples and provides increased sensitivity.

Title: Telecommunications system and call set-up method
Inventor: BUEPPELMANN RALF
IPC: H04M3/54
Filed: 1999-07-08
Abstract: The present invention relates to a telecommunication system, a method for setting-up a call in a telecommunication system and switching means in a telecommunication system for providing a call between a first subscriber station and a second subscriber station. A second subscriber station sends a request for obtaining location information concerning the first subscriber station to the telecommunication system. Then, location information is extracted from network information already available in the mobile radio telecommunication network to which the first subscriber station is connected by means of location information extracting means. The extracted location information is provided to the second subscriber station by means of location information providing means. Since no radio path is established to said first mobile subscriber station in question the resource consumption for providing location information can be minimized.

Title: Method of optimizing design parameters of data storage system and method of applying optimised design parameters
Inventor: RO CHEONG-RAE
IPC: G11B5/00
Filed: 2002-05-27
Abstract: A method of setting, optimsing and applying design parameters of a data storage system, such as a hard disk drive. Deterioration and failure of the system is caused by changes in characteristics over time and through use. These changes are preestimated, and design parameters used in a signal processing circuit in the preestimated failure condition are optimized to be stored. During use, a signal is processed using the design parameters optimized in the preestimated failure condition if errors occur due to changes in conditions of use of the data storage system. As a result, the period and frequency of use guaranteed in the data storage system can be extended considerably.
